Subliminal

Shadows of shape shifting marrow
Ride on the point of the arrow.
Speeding into destinies goal
Through the door of my open soul

And a tiger waits at the gate
Showing the fangs of my fate.
Blended in with the weeds and reeds
Waiting for the sound of my needs.

Where the hunter is the hunted
And the psyche’s worn and blunted
Blinded by the rays of the gold
The oldest story ever told.

Circles continue on their way
Forever in forever’s day
Ground and worn, the sands of hours
In the flows of shifting powers

And time has grown a lilies face
Where yesterday daffodils grace.

Seymour my dearest friend, darling man OH MY STARS this is incredible writing utterly soul drenching beautification of the spirit. I love it I love it utterly this is truly superb writing. This is so totally perfect, the rhyme the meter the flow, all connect to make this an utterly utterly fabulous piece of writing.

You know somewhere there’s a law that forbids you from always being so superior to everyone ese. So you must stop stealing the stars to illume your writing, you must stop dipping your think in the well of rainbow’s ink and you must halt in your ceaseless quest to be the best. But if you don’t I will still adore you and your wonderful writing


Love and warm stuff

And a tiger waits at the gate
Showing the fangs of my fate.
Blended in with the weeds and reeds
Waiting for the sound of my needs.

Where the hunter is the hunted
And the psyche's worn and blunted
Blinded by the rays of the gold
The oldest story ever told.
  

Circles continue on their way
Forever in forever's day
Ground and worn, the sands of hours
In the flows of shifting powers

And time has grown a lilies face
Where yesterday daffodils grace.
==================================
Randy came to me wearing wings of worry
said he fears you're feeling your age
I told him you carry the wisdom of your years
and the words must be put to page by gifted pen of sage

I told him theres no need to worry ...
told him that tiger has a rude awakening in store
I reminded him a tiger turns into a pussycat ...
once hes heard Sy's Randy Dragon roar.

Sy

I have faught with time my best
til tired out in need of rest

When you feel the weary and the wear,
surround yourself with those who care.
A gentle heart will hold you dear,
so rest your head when friends are near.

((hugs to you)) and I also thank you for the absolutely beautiful "scribbles" lol, and will treasure them always.

We should spend less time on worrying when our life is going to end and more on when it's going to start!
